Sidharth stopped drying her hair and said, "What did you just say??" Shehnaaz came back to reality from her dreamland and realised what she had done unconsciously... She hesitantly replied, "Kya?? Kuch bhi toh nahi kaha...Vo sab chhodo par I am so glad to have you in my life... Aaj tumne ye sab sirf mera confidence boost karne ke liye organise karaya...Mera camera cautious attitude thoda change karne ke liye...Sidharth main kaise thank you bolun... Thank you bhi bohot kam hoga uss sab ke liye jo tum mere liye kar rahe ho.." He smiled and said, "Thank you mat bolo... Honestly...Ye sab karne ke 2 reasons thee... Pehla tumhara confidence boost karna aur tumhare andar se jhijhak ko completely finish karna... I noticed in the last two days that you were always so cautious while you used to act and acting ek aisi cheez hai jise hume karte samay kho jana chahiye... Apne character ko jeena chahiye... Uss particular moment, uss particular scene ko jeena chahiye... Socho vo sach mein ho rha hai and there are no cameras, no people around you... Second reason is that memories create karna... Ab Paris aaye hain toh aise kaise kuch special kiye bina chale jayen...Jahan Sidharth vahan special cheezen... Aur tum baat badalna band karo samjhi... Kahan kuch nahi kaha tumne... Abhi toh kaha vo khayal rakhne ke liye...." She cut him in between and said, "Tum bhi kya ye sab le ke baith gaye... Come on jaldi se change kar lete hain... We need to get to the hotel also..." Saying this she rushed to the mini washroom in the vanity... Sidharth laughed at her silly cover up and went to change in his vanity set up near Shehnaaz's vanity... Shehnaaz took a shower and came out in her bathrobe while drying her hair...She hurriedly picked up her extra clothes which she usually carries on the days of her shoot... She noticed a mini heart shaped card hanging on her top... She pulled it out, opened it but before she could read it she heard the window of her vanity close with a bang... She saw someone's hand there... The mini card fell from her hand and she rushed towards the window... She opened it and looked around to see if anyone's there... She found no one and closed the window again... She thought, "I had closed the window before leaving for the shoot and I remember ke maine dobara window nahi kholi... Also, main jab freshen up hone gayi tab bhi band hi thi window... Was there someone in the vanity?? Arey Shehnaaz tu bhi na... Aisa kaise ho sakta hai... Leave it... Koi nahi tha...Aise hi hawa se ho gaya hoga... Par vo haath ka shadow...No...No...No...Not possible...Chhodo..." She changed and her eyes went on to the fallen card... She was about to pick it up when Sidharth entered and said, "Kya kar rahi hai... Come on let's go..."

They left for the hotel and just then a man in a striped shirt and black pants entered from the window... He picked up the note, caressed it and said with a devilish smirk on his face, "Jitna enjoy karna hai karlo because this might be your first and last trip... Such beautiful girls don't look good while working so hard... Unhe toh bas relax karna chahiye aur apni care karni chahiye... And that bloody Sid kitna kaam karata hai meri Sana se... Ab main aa gaya hun toh ab dekhna kya hota hai..."

Sidharth and Shehnaaz reached the hotel... Sidharth made an excuse and went with her to her room... As she opened the room it was all dark there... She said, "Sidharth ye lights ko kya ho gaya... Card toh inserted hai and Noor toh kahin bahar gayi nahi... Ruko main reception pe call karti hun..." As she turned towards the telephone a white coloured flash light came on to her face... The same light was on Sidharth as well.. He walked towards her, bent on his knees, gave her a red rose, took out a ring from his pocket and said, "So, Ms. Gill I told you that I'll definitely confess my feelings to you in Paris and make you confess as well... Ab tum soch rahi hogi ke kab kiya tumne confess toh main tumhe bata dun that you did so multiple times unknowingly and that confession was the perfect, unfiltered, honest one... Yaad hai tumhe kaise tum I love you bolte bolte ruk gayi thi and ya vo kya tha aaj vanity mein, 'tum ho na mera khayal rakhne ke liye...' Vahi sach hai madam... Main hun aur main hamesha rahunga tumhara khayal rakhne ke liye... Jaanti ho jab main tumse first day corridor mein takraya tha I could see a lot going on within you... Tumhara clear stand le lena vo bhi ek anjaan ke saamne was just so commendable... This needs a lot of confidence... Then, our horse ride... Ladkiyan mere sath baat karne tak ke liye marti hain aur tum mujhe bhao hi nahi de rahi thi... And look at you now... Smiling but not giving me attention... Uff...I know you are not going to say first so I hate you ka opposite Shehnaaz..." Shehnaaz laughed, raised her eyebrows and said, "I love you hota hai Mr. Perfect... Ab I love you too toh bol... Pehle bulva hi liya aakhir..." He made a cute face and said, "Matlab banda ring lekar ke itni der se ghutno pe baitha hai but Ms. Gill cares only about I love you too..." She laughed amidst moist eyes, went on to her knees and hugged him... She said, "No one has made me feel so special till date... I love you...Pehle bola ho ya baad mein doesn't matter... Jab se tum meri life mein aaye ho the tables turned towards the positive side... I could feel my dreams... I could feel the freedom... I felt loved... I felt that someone actually cared for my happiness... Someone saw the normal girl beyond the external beauty and richness... You made me understand life... You made me understand that karne se hi hota hai aur humein apne liye stand lena hoga varna koi humein na samjhega na support karega... I really want you to be a part of my life forever..." He made her wear the ring, kissed her forehead and said, "Together in every situation happy or sad..." Noor switched on the lights and Shehbaaz said, "Yaar Sidharth bhai aapne 5 minute bola tha yahan 20 minute se aap dono lage pade ho... Bhookh lagi hai mainu tey yaar..." Noor looked at the cake and said, "Yaar be practical di and my pyaare se jiju... Cake is waiting to be eaten...." Shehnaaz said, "Haan matlab you both don't care that your elder sister got her Mr. Perfect today and you just want to eat... Mote kahin ke..." Shehbaaz and Noor ran towards her together, hugged her and said, "Congratulations Shehnaaz... We love you and we are so happy..." Noor said after the group hug, "Meko pata tha ke tujhe ek na ek din apna Mr. Perfect mil hi jayega... Par aise I didn't know...This is so like a beautiful fairy tale..." Shehbaaz interrupted the sister duo and said, "Cake toh kaat lo yaar varna main aise hi kha jaana hai..." Shehnaaz lightly hit him on his shoulder and said, "Mote kabhi toh khane ke alava kuch aur bhi socha kar..." They went towards the cake and Shehnaaz saw SS written on it beautifully... Noor quickly made a video call to Rajender ji and Jasbeera ji who had already seen the proposal video and were waiting for the call... As Shehnaaz saw her parents she was surprised and a lone tear escaped her eye... Rajender ji said, "Bache aaj jab khush hona chahiye tab aap ro rahi hain... Hum toh kab se chahte thee ke aap shaadi kar len aur aaj aapne khudh hi aisa ladka dhundh liya jis pe hame naaz hai... Aapki choice perfect hai... Chaliye ab dono jaldi se cake kaatiye..." Sidharth and Shehnaaz made each other eat the first piece after cake cutting and then it was the Champaigne's turn... The music was on, dinner was set and everyone enjoyed the moment together... Shehnaaz and Sidharth danced together post dinner... They were lost in each other but someone on the other hand wasn't happy witnessing this... Suddenly the window's glass broke into pieces... Shehnaaz got scared and hugged Sidharth tight... Sidharth rubbed her back and said, "Kuch nahi hua darling... Sab theek hai... Ye shaayad weak hoga glass... Koi nahi.. Abhi manager ko bulate hain... Such an irresponsible act... Ye log sab sahi se check nahi kar sakte thee..." The manager came while Shehnaaz walked towards the balcony... She saw blood on one of the glass pieces... She was now sure of someone's presence.... She thought, "Iska matlab yahan koi tha... Aur jo vanity mein hua vo bhi kisi ne purposely kiya tha... Oh my God!! Vo card jo maine nahi dekha kahin usme bhi kuch... Shit... No...Main zyaada soch rahi hun... This might not be blood... Shayad aise hi paint hoga... Chhod Sana leave it..."
